Vol 7 Chapter 69: Competition for mineral resources

Two months later, a fleet far larger than the reinforcement fleet sent by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce slowly left the new flight port.
In addition to the large number of reinforcements and materials dispatched by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, the fleet also includes cooperation personnel from a total of eleven countries including the Candela Empire, the Marlow Empire, the Lampari Kingdom, the Kingdom of Rulson, the Duchy of Drac, and so on. Some materials.
After the last meeting, the only countries that finally decided to cooperate with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to enter the New World Development were only the eleven countries, which accounted for less than a quarter of the representative countries that participated in the meeting.
This is also normal. After all, for this new continent that suddenly popped up, no one but the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce knew much about it. Of course, it is impossible to invest heavily.
This time, the eleven countries sent out a very simple investigation team. The materials sent were just some of the living materials that were nominally used to support the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce. They did not have any specific meaning.
So in fact, the most important part of this fleet is the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce itself.
Xu may not be as hesitant as those countries. Through the exploration of the team in the past, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has already had a certain understanding of the situation on the magic cloud mainland. Xu has already determined the development of the New World. plan.
This time, the reinforcement fleet not only included a large number of personnel and materials, but also dispatched a full 3,000 New Flying Chamber of Commerce guards, as well as military magic machinery filled with two large cargo magic ships. It is to be able to build a frontline base smoothly.
Of course, if you want to really take root in the New World, the task that this base needs to undertake is still very heavy.
Because the two continents are separated by a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers. It takes a long time for the fleet to travel for a month, so the base on the Magic Cloud mainland cannot rely on the Sainz mainland to deliver the past supplies. It must do its best to be self-sufficient.
Therefore, in accordance with Xu’s plan, a complete small industrial base must be established in the base to meet the various needs of the base.
The most basic need is in terms of living materials and some military magic machinery.
To meet these two needs means that the base must obtain sufficient resources from the local area of ​​Magic Cloud.
Of course, these resources cannot fall out of thin air.
In accordance with the agreement between the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the Sansas Elf tribe and the Carrom dwarf tribe. These two tribes will help Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to obtain some resources in the early stage to meet the early needs of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce.
But the strength of these two tribes is limited. It is impossible to meet the increasingly powerful requirements of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce.
So in the final analysis, it is still necessary for the new Feishang Association to obtain it by itself.
However, in order to obtain resources, it is inevitable to face the various expected and unexpected dangers that follow the magic cloud continent, and it needs more military support. Simply put, you need enough escorts and military magic machinery.
And it is equally impossible to rely entirely on the support of the new Flying Chamber of Commerce headquarters on the Cairns mainland, and still need to solve it by itself.
So to put it bluntly, it is an extremely difficult thing to establish a complete sub-base away from the main base of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce. It is also impossible for Xu to have 100% optimism.
But he can't help but because the new flyers want to get enough room for development. This brand new continent is a better place for the far-off Enns continent.
The deepest reason is that the continent of Sainz is already a continent with a basically fixed form. All the land and resources have long been divided by other countries.
It will be extremely difficult for Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to intervene, especially in the time period when the magic industry is more and more developed, and all countries are paying more and more attention to related resources.
One month after the reinforcement fleet left. Including the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, a total of forty-six major chambers dealing with mineral resources on the mainland of Cairns announced that they will jointly set up a joint meeting on mineral resources to integrate and cooperate with all mineral resources under the name to unify operating standards.
This is the first time that this type of organization has appeared on the mainland of Sainz, so this meeting called the Chino Mineral Resources Joint Organization Agreement. When the organization of the Chino Federation was just announced, many people did not understand what they were going to do.
However, a few things happened in the next half month. But told others the answer to this question.
The Chino Federation first announced that they will integrate the iron ore resources operated by the Chamber of Commerce. In order to ensure the stability and control of mineral resources, the mineral prices of all Chambers of Commerce under the Chino Federation will be uniformly formulated.
After research, the Chino Federation officially announced the preliminary price.
Then everyone found that compared to the previous prices of various mineral resources, the price set by the Chino Federation has all been improved, and the iron ore with the largest demand has increased by 15%. many!
The same demand is huge, but because the price has been low, and the magic crystal that is not concerned by people, the price has also increased by 10%, officially broke through a gold coin one ton.
The biggest impact on this price increase is of course the largest demand for these mineral resources, the various magic machinery chambers headed by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
Although it seems to have only increased by more than 10%, it has actually greatly increased the manufacturing costs of these magical machinery chambers, directly weakening their profits.
The profit margin of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has always been very high, which is not fatal for them, but for those small chambers of commerce, it has further weakened their already high profits, and even directly affected the survival of many small chambers of commerce. .
In order to continue to maintain low cost, many small chambers of commerce began to purchase mineral resources from the Mineral Resources Chamber of Commerce outside the Chino Union.
However, these chambers under the name of the Chino Federation control almost all mineral resources in the southern and central parts of the entire Sainz continent, including the Candela empire. Most of these small-scale magical machinery chambers are concentrated in the competition. The southeastern corner of Enns is a country, making it difficult for them to obtain sufficient mineral resources through other channels.
So the establishment of the Chino Federation almost declared the death of many small-scale magic machinery chambers.
For this, Xu is also very upset.
In February 3781, the Sino-Czech Republic announced that it was established and announced the price of a new mineral resource. Three months later, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce announced that the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce will be under the name of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce. An additional chamber of commerce was established, called the Xinfei Mining Chamber of Commerce.
As the name suggests, the business of the Xinfei Mining Chamber of Commerce is all kinds of mineral resources.
In the news announced by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce said that the purpose of the establishment of this chamber of commerce is mainly because with the gradual expansion of the scale of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce, the demand for various mineral resources will become more and more important. It is not appropriate to purchase all kinds of minerals from other channels, so I decided to solve this problem on my own.
But as long as it is not a fool, we can see that the new Feifei Mining Chamber of Commerce will obviously go directly to the Chino Federation.
Prior to this, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce had some mineral resources under its own name, but in fact most of the mineral resources were directly purchased from other minerals associations.
In the early days, the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce purchased mainly from the Falcao Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Lampari.
Later, with the expansion of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce, the demand for mineral resources increased, and with the substantial development of the magic industry in the Kingdom of Lampari, the demand for various mineral resources increased greatly, so the new Feishang Association began to turn Other aspects are obtained.
The most important of these channels is actually the Chamber of Commerce from the current Chino Federation.
Now Xinfei Chamber of Commerce suddenly announced the establishment of this new Feifei Mining Chamber of Commerce, which shows that it is necessary to fight against the Chino Federation. Does it mean that the cooperation between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Chamber of Commerce of the Chino Federation is broken?
However, the Chino Federation has almost controlled almost all mineral resources in the southern and central parts of the mainland. Does the new Feishang Association not cooperate with them and where do they get enough mineral resources?
In mid-February, the Xinfei Mining Chamber of Commerce officially announced its establishment. At the same time, it announced the 17 mines that it has already mastered and is already in the state of mining. It said that the Xinfei Mining Chamber of Commerce now has enough mineral resources to provide it.
Once the news was announced, the outside world suddenly lost.
The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has been trying to control some of its mineral resources. This is known to many people, but it is really surprising to control so much.
What is even more surprising is the price of various mineral resources announced by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Taking iron ore as an example, the price announced by the new Feishang Association is seven gold coins and 40 silver coins per ton. This price is basically the same as that of many previous chambers of commerce. It is also the price that Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has always purchased iron ore from other chambers of commerce.
But if compared with the iron ore announced by the Chino Federation, the price is almost as low as 20%!
If people think that the new Feifei Chamber of Commerce will be established with the Chino Federation, it is still a guess in everyone's mind.
So now the Xinfei Mining Chamber of Commerce has announced such a mineral price, which is exactly equal to the red bare naked to tell everyone that I am going to work with the Chino Federation!
Everyone is amazed at this.
Why does the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce do this?
If it is said that in the magic industry, the new Feishang is the most powerful chamber of commerce, no one will have doubts about this.
However, in the mining industry, where is the confidence of the new Feishang Association?
It should be noted that the Chino Federation represents not only the 46 mineral resources chambers of commerce including the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, but behind them can be separated from a large number of countries including the Candela Empire. (To be continued)
